Makes Perfect Cents

When I get bored I tend to resort to stumbleupon.com, either that or food. Last night I was "stumbling" and came across a website called THREADSENCE.

Here is their definition for those of you wondering what they're all about:

Threadsence [thred-sens]

noun

"Clothing and fashion at it's very core; basic and invariable nature of a thing; the essence of threads."

Threadsence has a feminine, flirty feel to it with a touch of something different. I like to compare it to Urban Outfitters only not as pricey.

I enjoy rocking the urban feel from time to time when I'm feelin' the mood. You could basically pick out your entire outfit from head to toe if you wanted to without leaving the page, and my favorite part is that you don't have to spend a fortune.

They bring you unique brands from all over, including Tulle, Lamixx, Fluffy Co and Evil Twin, the list goes on believe me.

Dress: $35

Cuff: $19

Bangles: $18

Necklace: $14

Shoes: $26

=$112 for a whole outfit!

For those of you already gearing up for fall, here's my look of choice incorporating other pieces you may already own:

Throw in any graphic tee and your favorite pair of dark skinnies and you're golden!

Graphic Tee: Forever 21 $15.80

Blazer: Threadsence $59

Earrings: Threadsence $9

Sandals: Threadsence $52.50

= $136

Check out their website to create your own look, the possibilities are endless!

What is Trocadero?

Trocadero is a lifestyle and accessories concept boutique in Omaha, Nebraska. It opened its doors on October 13, 2007 and is the creation of Alice Kim, who worked at In Style magazine for over a decade, most recently as their Accessories Director overseeing editorial coverage of shoes, handbags, jewelry and everything non-apparel. After 15+ years of working in NYC in fashion, Alice moved to Omaha to slow things down a bit and opened up a store filled with all her favorite things. Trocadero celebrates all those wonderful items that you read about...but also know that they are tried-and-true items that have gone through all the tests to make them "worthy" of being in Trocadero! We stand by all our products! They are really the best of the best!!
